control of ignition and injection to the error-free Lane. In the instance of a permanently lit
lamp, first turn the Lane switch for that specific lane off, and on again.
WARNING
If one Lane lamp is lit, then the other is managing the engine. Turning off the
incorrect Lane switch will stop the engine! Take care to choose the correct
switch!
If the fault re-occurs, then land the aircraft at the next safe opportunity and investigate.
Flight with only one Lane working correctly is not permissible.
A single operational Lane provides normal engine operation and full engine power.
Differences arise only in the efficiency of the engine.
